So i've finally decided to push my laptop to see how far it can go via overclocking with the software msiafterburner. The steps i followed are:
1. BIOS
2. Disable Turbo + Enable Overclocking
3. Set unofficialoverclocking (2) & eula (the statement) in msiafterburner.cfg
4. Saved my default to profile 1 and made a overclocking profile with (Core:+135 & Memory:+405)
5. Checked GPU Z core mhz default (735 mhz) and after (880 mhz)
6. Benched default & overclocked on furmark
and this is where i've entered problems. Upon 'overclocking" i didn't notice any extreme temperature changes NOR any performance gains. Furmark test scores ended up being 1200 both default & overclock on the same presets.
Can anyone tell me what my problem is or what i may have done wrong?
One more thing//
When i ran GPU-Z standalone, the cuda checkbox wasn't checked so i'm assuming cuda isn't enabled. Is this normal for all you other R2 users or am I supposed to download drivers to activate CUDA?
